Ductile polylactic acid/poly(butylene diglycolate): structures and properties
Polylactic acid (PLA) is a kind of polyester from biomass. To increase the ductility of PLA, melt blending was used to prepare the polylactic acid/poly(butylene diglycolate) blends in this study. The effect of poly(butylene diglycolate) (PBD) on the thermal, crystallization, tensile, and dynamic mechanical properties of PLA was investigated. The blend containing 30 wt% PBD has a substantially improved elongation at break (79%) due to the lower glass transition temperature of PBD compared to PLA. The results indicated that PLA and PBD exhibited partial compatibility, which was confirmed by dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis showed there is the interaction between PLA and PBD. In summary, the incorporation of PBD resulted in improved mechanical properties, indicating potential for applications requiring enhanced ductility.
